New evaluation methods of read mapping by 17 aligners on simulated and empirical NGS data: an updated comparison of DNA- and RNA-Seq data from Illumina and Ion Torrent technologies [PDF]
During the last (15) years, improved omics sequencing technologies have expanded the scale and resolution of various biological applications, generating high-throughput datasets that require carefully chosen software tools to be processed. Therefore, following the sequencing development, bioinformatics researchers have been challenged to implement ...

Decision-Aid Methods Based on Belief Function Theory with Application to Torrent Protection [PDF]
In mountainous areas, decision-makers must find the best solution to protect elements-at-torrential risk. The decision process involves several criteria and is based on imperfect information. Classical Multi-Criteria Decision-Aiding methods (MCDAs) are restricted to precise criteria evaluation for decision-making under a risky environment and suffer of

Next-generation sequencing library preparation method for identification of RNA viruses on the Ion Torrent Sequencing Platform [PDF]
Next generation sequencing (NGS) is a powerful tool for the characterization, discovery, and molecular identification of RNA viruses. There were multiple NGS library preparation methods published for strand-specific RNA-seq, but some methods are not suitable for identifying and characterizing RNA viruses.

Combination of the Wenner resistivimeter and Torrent permeameter methods for assessing carbonation depth and saturation level of concrete [PDF]
Abstract Assessing carbonation depth is of great interest for the diagnosis of reinforced concrete structures because carbonation is one of the origins of steel corrosion. The assessment of carbonation depth is usually performed by a simple and reliable semi-destructive test consisting in spraying a colored indicator on a sample extracted from the ...

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.
